Platinum diddn't have clans and it's real active and new people come in everyday.

Compare that activity with the Diamond forums...

The only reason Diamond has that kind of activity is because you have a bunch of little kids going post happy. Imagine if they found that Platinum, HeartGold, and SoulSilver had Clan forums too. They're posting habits would increase, since that's all they do.

Unfortunately, we can't discuss this properly here, because this decision will most likely be based on a Moderator Level.

I, personally, like the idea of a clan. I can, however, agree that it is annoying that little kids spam in certain posts but quite a bit of the posting on the clan forums is actual posting done by people who can comprehend things.

Hopefully the Moderator decides to let the Clans at least get a test run in the SS/HG forums.

Great idea guy! To bring more people to the forum, create a massive spam fest!

The general clan forum idea would not work. You are honestly just better off going to a Pokemon social forum. Oh, wait, we have one. Nobody uses it though.

Better yet, just host your own...I've always been in favour of running your own forum for clans (hell I did it before...but that's a different story) since it keeps all the little children away who're desperate to join every clan they possibly can.

Obviously people would be against this idea, but it's always been my take on the whole thing. Clans are, in essence, social forums, and they really shouldn't be on a site like Neoseeker. We have General Pokemon for that.

Okay, here's how it is. I don't even know if we are allowed to have clan forums anymore, because at one point they were trying to get rid of them (and they might still be). The input will be valuable for deciding if we should have them (if we are allowed to) about six months from now. For now though, let's discuss more relevant stuff. ^__^

Are the links under the header good? Do you guys want some fadey links like suggested on one of the earlier pages?
